NYACK, NY – Today the New York State Bar suspended the law license of Rudy Giuliani for making demonstrably false and misleading statements about the 2020 presidential election in his capacity as Donald Trump’s personal attorney.

In January, just days after Giuliani helped to incite the violent insurrection at the Capitol, Rep. Mondaire Jones and Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) wrote to the NYS Bar urging the organization to disbar Giuliani.

Rep. Jones Released the Following Statement:

“Rudy Giuliani is a disgrace to the legal profession,” said Congressman Jones. “The legal profession cannot tolerate sedition in its ranks if it hopes to maintain the faith of the American people, which is why I called for Giuliani to be disbarred just days after he helped incite the violent insurrection at the Capitol. I’m glad the bar has heeded my calls and suspended his law license. For the safety of New Yorkers, Americans, and our democracy, he must never be allowed to practice law again.”
